Skill getting pitta due for distribution (8)
I believe the answer is:
aptitude
'skill' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'getting pitta due for distribution' is the wordplay.
'getting' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'for distribution' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'pitta' put after 'due' is 'duepitta'.
'duepitta' with letters rearranged gives 'APTITUDE'.
(Other definitions for aptitude that I've seen before include "Flair" , "Bent" , "Update it, having natural skill" , "Natural ability or skill" , "A particular talent or facility" .)
